grpc-proxy

proxying gRPC traffic: gRPC client -> APISIX -> gRPC/gRPCS server

Parameters

scheme: the scheme of the route's upstream must be grpc or grpcs.
uri: format likes /service/method, Example：/helloworld.Greeter/SayHello

Example

create proxying gRPC route

Here's an example, to proxying gRPC service by specified route:

attention: the scheme of the route's upstream must be grpc or grpcs.
attention: APISIX use TLS‑encrypted HTTP/2 to expose gRPC service, so need to config SSL certificate
the grpc server example：grpc_server_example

curl http://127.0.0.1:9080/apisix/admin/routes/1 -H 'X-API-KEY: edd1c9f034335f136f87ad84b625c8f1' -X PUT -d '
{
    "methods": ["POST", "GET"],
    "uri": "/helloworld.Greeter/SayHello",
    "upstream": {
        "scheme": "grpc",
        "type": "roundrobin",
        "nodes": {
            "127.0.0.1:50051": 1
        }
    }
}'

testing

Invoking the route created before：

$ grpcurl -insecure -import-path /pathtoprotos  -proto helloworld.proto  -d '{"name":"apisix"}' 127.0.0.1:9443 helloworld.Greeter.SayHello
{
  "message": "Hello apisix"
}

This means that the proxying is working.

gRPCS

If your gRPC service encrypts with TLS by itself (so called gPRCS, gPRC + TLS), you need to change the scheme to grpcs. The example above runs gRPCS service on port 50052, to proxy gRPC request, we need to use the configuration below:

curl http://127.0.0.1:9080/apisix/admin/routes/1 -H 'X-API-KEY: edd1c9f034335f136f87ad84b625c8f1' -X PUT -d '
{
    "methods": ["POST", "GET"],
    "uri": "/helloworld.Greeter/SayHello",
    "upstream": {
        "scheme": "grpcs",
        "type": "roundrobin",
        "nodes": {
            "127.0.0.1:50052": 1
        }
    }
}'
